I thought it was Loggah. I don't second guess him often either, but when I do I make sure I do it from a long ways away.

Gary, or anyone else, do you have a drawing of the B&M mount for the Savage 99 rifle? Is the above drawing it? I would love to see the drawing in the Spiegel catalog too. Just trying to learn this, sorry to be a pita.

Anyone carrying around the hole spacing and approx height measurements needed for the front mount in their wallet when attending gunshows? Might be walking by them w/o knowing. We have a local guy with a good mount selection, I might have to go shopping..

The hole spacing matches the lyman target blocks for the 99. I have a set at work and can get it for you tomorrow.

Bringing this back up!
I have a .250-3000 Spiegel gun. It has the scope mount holes. Has holes on the side of the stock where the medallion was mounted (it's gone now).
It is not checkered. Also no stamp on receiver.
Manufactured in 1937 Serial No. 3674xx.
I thought it was just an uncheckered EG with a few extra holes until I went to the 2019 Fest and a couple of the guys realized it was a Spiegel gun.
Nice to know that there are some honest guys who helped this rookie!

Yep, falls squarely in the serial number range for the "unengraved" Spiegels.
Without the roll stamp, it's hard to spot these.

Glad to help. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, went on babbling about it for two days. Always wanted the uncheckered 250 EG and there it went. Oh well. John, glad you joined up!

22" barrel too I suppose?
Pre war 250 EG with 22" barrel on the short list here.

Can't seem to find one old stock, without a threaded muzzle in 7-08. Plus, I really I'm partial to blue steel and walnut. With just slightly more weight, it's probably a better off hand shooter. So sorry. I apologize for derailing the thread.
